Sake from Tochigi
Bo: Junmai Ginjo Hitogochi Unfiltered Nama Sake
I wanted to compare this sake with Nozomu's Hitogochi Activated Nigori, so I bought the Unfiltered Nama Sake. Compared to the active nigori, this one has a better overall balance. The active nigori has a stronger sweetness and umami flavor.
This elegant balance of Nozomu is different from Hirotogawa. Sonoike Shuzoten, which produces Nozomu, is a brewery that won first place in both the ginjo-shu and junmai-shu categories at this year's Nanbu Toji Sake Competition, the first time for a brewery to win a double award. Incidentally, the second place double winner was Urasato Shuzoten, so it was really close!
We are happy to see that there are many local liquor stores that carry Nozomu. It is a sake that deserves to be more popular.
Degree of liking 10/10

Hi nenemu 😃
Nice drinking comparison👍
Indeed! Nozomu-san is delicious... But when I looked at the Tochigi view ranking, there are many strong rivals 😅.
